Finding my Faith (Six Saviors 2) by Carly Fall

Hello to all,

A new month has started and it started on a really positive note for me....i was asking to review a book i wanted to ( Thank you Carly!!) and i LOVED it!, i finished it in matter of hours so i had time for another one that i enjoyed as much, i also put some order on my shelves but on that side i'm only at the beginning ^^.

So i'm really happy and i didn't want to make you wait so today i'm sharing with you my opinion on "Finding My Faith" book 2 in the six saviors series by Carly Fall. If you rememeber i shared my opinion on the first book "The Light Within Me " earlier this year for the monthly topic " alien" in paranormal romance. I enjoyed it and wanted more and i got my wish granted....believe me i don't regret at all!! I've become addicted to this series.

Growing
up in a small Northern Arizona town, Faith Cloudfoot’s life was spent playing in the
forests surrounding her house under the protective eyes of her father, and
learning about the legends of her Native American heritage. Yearning for more
out of her life, she moves to Phoenix, Arizona at the age of twenty-three where she is kidnapped and
almost killed.

Rayner has a special ability, one that weighs
on him like a curse. He can see spirits trapped in between life and their final
resting place. Because he can’t do much to help them, he studiously ignores
them. He concentrates, instead, on working with his fellow warriors to right
the wrongs caused by the evil criminals from his home planet.

When Rayner sees Faith in her spirit form while
investigating a lead in Phoenix, his attraction to her is immediate, yet he follows
his own personal code and ignores her cry for attention. When he realizes that
she may be a stepping stone to getting him home to his own universe, he engages
Faith and begins to use her as a means to an end: going home.

As the attraction grows stronger, Rayner finds
himself breaking all sorts of self-set rules, as well as the code of ethics set
by him and his fellow warriors. When Faith nears death, Rayner realizes that he
must do everything in his power to save her, because if he doesn’t, he may just
lose himself.

My opinion:

LOVE it! It was finished in almost 2hours so that said how strongly I
was immersed in the story and enjoying it… after reading book one “the light
within me” I did have a soft spot for Rayner and learning more about was simply
too good.

Rayner was quite a bitter character with
only his job in mind… from all the warriors he is the one who wish to return to
SR 44 the most and he does works for it even if he means flying somewhere else
on mission (and he hate flying) In fact, he is one that suffer the most in my
opinion, his power sound like a curse for him: being able to see and speak to
spirits trapped but not being able to help them has taken his toll on him. In
fact he only succeeded once and thus he tried to ignore them. It’s really the
opposite as how he was before.. as a child he was carefree, living in the
forest, respecting the nature and spirits
with his loving family. Rayner wanted some adventures so he left his
forest for the city where he met Cohen and Hudson, fellow warriors, and decided
to enrol in the military to see the world.

However he did promise his mother to
come back and that what is keeping him strong and determined… he wants to go
back and get once again the warm feeling to belong.

I could only smile at how similar it was
to Faith growing up…she too lived in the nature with a loving family but took
pleasure in exploring, taking risks and in the end by leaving for the city
where her life took a drastic turn. The difference between them….Faith hasn’t
lost herself yet, she still dreams, hopes and laughs while Rayner forgot it.
Both understand the spiritual world and respect it despites some doubts
sometimes, like Faith who doesn’t believe how special she is and the prophecy
she is supposed to accomplish.

They are simply perfect for each other
and I enjoyed how they had to discover it and then had to make it works, faith
really needed her inner strength to makes Rayner understand and see what was
under his eyes. I also loved her parents how insightful they were, how open
while still protective. They are some really steamy scenes yes but deeper
feelings and emotions are predominant in this one.

While the action and romance are there,
some humour too, in my opinion it was
also more profound, the author make me think and feel things in the character’s perspectives and I was
completely hooked and they grew on me. It also means that I was even more angry
at the villain.

The author closes the story on a happy
note, the characters have their happy end, but this being a series we know it
can be temporary, but the investigations isn’t complete, yes faith is saved but
the culprit, even simply his motives are not sure for our heroes…and that the
only reason this book don’t get the maximum score….i don’t like when the bad
ones go off easily, the more evil they are the more I want them to suffer.. I
think I’ve become really addicted to this series at this point and next book
will not be in my hands soon enough.

If you want an excellent paranormal
romance with a some deepen meanings fitting in the main storyline, a book that
can work as a stand alone , but you wouldn’t want to miss book 1, then try Finding my Faith and the Six saviors series…
it’s a must read!

Score: 4,5/5
